After a week of getting wet in Wales and not drying properly my boots well, stank. A couple days in the freezer and they are less stinky. Magic

Taken in one of the wider, lower, Norwegian fjords a couple of days ago.
We are towing this barge from Verdal, Norway, to Rio de Janeiro. At 6 knots. Which will take about 40 days.
The only thing which will change over that time is the amount of blue stuff in the frame - if the barge disappears there's something very, very wrong.
Only bikes around are the two mountain bikes in storage.

I can get both cars and 3 bikes in it.
It's usually tidy as all the TD stuff goes straight into the loft after a TD, and the track bike goes along the top wall behind a board.
I can get a fridge, freezer, tumble drier, mountain bike, racing bike, three lawnmowers electric lawn rake, and a numerous boxes of "Stuff", the car? on the drive of course.It's usually tidy as all the TD stuff goes straight into the loft after a TD, and the track bike goes along the top wall behind a board.
Even if it was empty, Volvo's are a tad tight in modern garages, they must think we all have mini's.

I mean come on it's almost 4 o'clock!
Almost seven here, I'm just about to leave the office and go to the bar...I mean come on it's almost 4 o'clock!
May I add my second entry for today! (it's been a busy day!)
Here's my wrist being de-casted! Doesn't look safe to me
And after!!
You may have noticed my crude sound/smell effects.
My other arm isn't working out too well, the surgeon doesn't like the look of the X-Rays at all, the broken bone fragments have compacted and aren't growing leaving my joint very weak. He's is giving it 6 weeks to heal but if there's no improvement he wants to fuse the joint leaving me pretty much disabled for life. I've decided I'll fuse my foot in his arse before I allow that to happen. Second option, which he seems to think it's the worst of the two is a full joint replacement. This would give me good useage/movement but they wear out, so I'll need a new one now and again. They last 20 years or so in eldery people, but for a 32 year old Downhill Mountain Biker / Motorbiker it might only last 10. To be honest I'm feeling a major surgery once every 15 year average as the lessor of two evils!!
Anyway, I have a private surgeon expecting my call, Swiss fella, works in Bahrain where my folks live, if he can opperate I might try to book it in to watch the Bahrain GP afterwards.
Oh yes, I thought I'd make the most of having a working Elbow (sorta) whilst I still could so took the CBR out for a spin up to Downs Cafe afterwards, a bit wobbly and some of the other bikers mush have though I was having some kinda MJ issues because I could only get one glove on but hey ho, whilst I still can and all that.
